Couldn’t sleep last night put the recovery speed on 8 and went to the park of nothing. But not this time 1897 IHC and 2 junk earrings. Haven’t gotten a IH in a while:)))) IMG_0012.JPGIMG_0012.JPGIMG_0012.JPGIMG_0012.JPGIMG_0012.JPGIt’s weird the first ear ring rang up a 22

Worth losing a little sleep over!
 

I seem to dig up so many modern pennies, and it's always a thrill to pull out an IHP. Congrats!
 

IHP are just way cool and put a smile on the face, at least on mine. awesome job my friend. like the flower one too
 

Good job my friend Ive been out alot of times and get nothing every dog needs a bone here and there. Thats a nice one. I was going to bring my detector when I took my Daughter to Loyola in Louisiana but didnt have time to detect but did go to the french quarter..Keep at it my friend the Mojo is still there. Tommy
 

I thought you were about to say this was your first Indian. I was thinking “how in the hell do you find multiple Seated and Capped busts without finding an Indian” haha. Way to go T. Ready for some fall weather? 🙃

Thanks A2 I was very surprised. I hope you got some good food and some great hospitality.
 

Great find! I remember my first IHC...is still my oldest coin to date. I just wish it was in better condition...like yours.

Jarl I pray another one comes your way. This one was actually my most worn but I have gotten them crusty and lumpy that looked like the elephant main so I’m grateful [emoji1317]
 

Nice IHP. Congrats. Sometimes the pin part of the ear rings are gold. I took many ear rings in for cash and the guy would just cut the pins off and say this is gold the rest is scrap. Maybe try acid test on the pin. You never know. Good luck.
